    Hello,

    I hope I'm in the right place, my English is not that good and I work with a translator.

    So I have used the following see screenshot. Worked wonderfully (silent installation). I use this in my Windows installation stick.
    Windows is installed and then the CMD-Office-Retail-Install.cmd is started. Then the KMSVLALLAIO.cmd
    When I then start Word, for example, I just have to click on "Agree" and that's it.

    I always use Office Tools Plus to download the newest Office files (see "Office" folder in the screenshot) when there is a new update.

    My concern:

    NOW i have bought the retail version of Office Home & Business 2021 - so i have selected and downloaded Office Home & Business 2021 in Office Tools Plus.
    And everything is as usual except for the activation with KMSVLALLAIO.cmd - i don't need that anymore because I just want Office to be activated automatically with my original license key.

    Is that possible... do I have to write this somehow in the C2RR_Config...ini or....? If yes, how please?

    What is the difference to KMSVLALLAIO.cmd?

    I don't know if this is what I mean... I want to activate Office Home & Business 2021 automatically with my legally purchased key.

    the simple way,
    enter `C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office16` folder
    use `OSPP.VBS` script to install the new key

    Or you can use PS .. for this ...
    Code:
    (gwmi SoftwareLicensingService).InstallProductKey(SOME KEY)
    
    or using WMIC (from CONSOLE)
    Code:
    wmic path SoftwareLicensingService where __CLASS='SoftwareLicensingService' call InstallProductKey ProductKey="SOME KEY"

    Qu1goN, On the activation tab, check the availability of the required Retail license. If it is not there, then add it. Set the key via Microsoft Office or in the key field.
    Ignore advice to use activators.
    The above message is for manual installation, but I won’t say whether it will install the license or whether it needs to be done separately.
    You can also re-deploy the product, including specifying several products and activating only the one you need.

    If you have a license, then the product of the same name must be deployed.

    Read about 365 and 2024 at the link in the 2024 topic.
    Generally speaking, 365 is better because it keeps getting better features. But it also requires constant payment. Products with one-time payment represent a 365 snapshot/impression of some stage of development (2016/2019/2021/2024). However, access to some functions (mainly by subscription) is limited.
    Otherwise, we don’t know what will happen in the fall with the 2024 release, since the real (official) testing stage has not yet begun.

    Please keep discussions about using Office Tool Plus only in this thread. For a discussion of Microsoft products and the use of third-party methods for managing them (activation, deployment, etc.), look in the relevant topics.

    Hi, sorry for my late reply.

    You are right, installing Office Home & Business 2021 from Office Tool Plus, then open Office application (such like Word) and login your Microsoft account, the Office should activated automated. If you have a valid key, follow the instructions and bind it to your MS account.

    It works. But I have a Windows installation stick that does everything automatically.
    The office Home & Business installation is also no problem, so it installs automatically as described in my post above.
    Activation was previously carried out by automatically executing KMS_VL_ALL_AIO.cmd.
    I didn't have to do anything anymore. Ok, the first time I start Word, for example, I still have to agree to the terms and conditions, that was one click.

    So Office H&B is installed, so it's just a matter of automatic activation with my original key.

    Is that possible? If the MS account registration is a requirement, then I think it's done anyway.

    The key for Home & Business edition is VL key or Retail key?

    - If VL key, you can install it after Office installation is done.
    - If Retail key, the retail key usually binded to someone's MS account, and activate Office by login the MS account.

    Maybe you should know which type of key you have?
